IPL 2026: Lucknow's Auction Blunder? 7 Injured Players, 8.6 Cr for Inglis' 4 Matches!
- •Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) acquired 7 players with a history of injuries in the IPL 2026 auction, raising concerns.
- •LSG spent 8.60 crore rupees on Australian wicket-keeper Josh Inglis, who will only be available for 4 matches due to his marriage.
- •Key injured players include Mitchell Marsh, Mohammed Shami, Wanindu Hasaranga, Anrich Nortje, Avesh Khan, Mayank Yadav, and Mohsin Khan.
- •Cameron Green became the most expensive foreign player (25.20 crore by KKR), while Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma were most expensive uncapped Indians (14.20 crore each by CSK).
- •LSG's strategy is questioned as they already have four other wicket-keepers despite spending heavily on Inglis.
Why It Matters: LSG's auction strategy is questioned due to multiple injured players and high spend on Josh Inglis for limited availability.
